My cat used to have a problem putting on the brakes like that, especially when he'd try to turn while running over this one rug that was kind of slippery. Then sometimes he'd suddenly run at full speed for no apparent reason. One time in my old apartment when I had a few friends sitting around, he hadn't made an appearance for a few hours, then out of nowhere he charged into the room at full speed, bounced off a couch at the other end of the room like a swimmer making a turn off a wall, and raced back out of the room at top speed again. Then he went and laid back down again--didn't come back in the room, didn't hear him running around anywhere else. Everyone in the room looked at each other like, "What the heck was that all about?", and then started cracking up :)
